When You're On A Set It Can

When You Have A Play, You Have To Be On Every Night.

People Are Going To Always Have Their Opinions Whether You Date A Black Man Or Not. I've Had Girlfriends, Family Members Comment On Black Men That I've Dated As Well As White People. People Want To See What They Want To See. And If Anybody Doesn't Fit That Picture They're Going To Be Like, 'yeah, I Didn't See You With Him.'

My Characteristics [of Ideal Black Man.] Aren't As Specific. I'm More General. I'm More Like, I Have To Be Able To Talk To Him. You Know, We Have To Have Good Communications. He Has To Be Interested In The World. You Know What I Mean. Like Interested In Learning And Adventurous And Curious, 'cause That's What I Am. He Has To Be Passionate About Something. And It Would Be Nice If He Had A Job. It's Not Like He Has To Have An Mba.

There's A Lot Of Kenya That's Not Like Me. I Like Birkenstocks, Granola, My Dog Pops.

The Great Thing About The Stage Is That You Have A Structured Month-long Rehearsal Period Where You're Going In Every Day. You Have To Have Lots Of Run-throughs With Theater Because There Are No Second Takes In Front Of A Live Audience.
